Buddy Guy: Living Proof version on CD in Standard edition. This particular edition was published in Europe in publishing company Silvertone Records in cooperation with Jive and Sony Music on 2. November 2010.

Thanks to numerous awards, Buddy Guy's name has become a trademark of the blues. At 74 years old, he is certainly one of the best known and most distinctive exponents of the electric blues, and his influence on the blues genre and major rock guitarists such as Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton and Stevie Ray Vaughan is enormous. On his new album "Living Proof" he plays alongside Carlos Santana and another great living blues legend, B. B. King "King of the Blues". Review "Not in a long time has he let his guitar sing with such cutting and haunting power as on this album. In songs like 74 Years Young, he makes it clear in a witty and self-ironic way that he is far from thinking he is old. No, Guy still has a lot to say." (wasser-prawda. de) "Even at 74, Buddy Guy's raw blues energy is still palpable. He's, excuse me, an asshole!" (stereoplay, 12 / 2010) "Buddy Guy rocks like a 20-year-old and wails like a newly divorced 30-year-old. Combined with the maturity of a septuagenarian, it makes for an absolutely riveting cocktail of tried-and-true schemes on Living Proof - and proof that the blues are not a matter of age." (audio, 12 / 2010) "Guy plays the blues (again) as dirty and distorted as in the old days with Chess. The superbly executed recordings show how powerfully he has always shaped his 'pupils' with his playing." (stereo, 01 / 2011) "Insiders say Buddy Guy has long been deaf because of his love of smoking amps. But if that leads to someone thunderingly rocking into his twilight years, then he must be happier than some who still suspect ten thousand hertz. The album "Living Proof", which incidentally featured contributions from Carlos Santana and B. B. King guested, is therefore a manifesto against inertia. Rock'n'Roll!" (Sono, 12 / 2010)

Album spans genres Blues and Chicago Blues. Jewel Case.
